lacking stability
rocking, winding, slipping,
distracting inability
missing the step beneath your foot
crawling now, just a bit further
before you reach the edge of the bed
only to realize you aren't even home
retract, revise, retrace,
attempt to find that peaceful place
forget to remember
remembering to forget
once you awake
realize that you were never asleep
